Okay, I've been off chocolate, ice cream, cookies & candy for a week. I do feel better (damn, that shit makes me dull & stupid...) but I only lost .2 of a lb at Weight Watchers weigh in yesterday. Well, I was happy that at least I lost SOMEthing AND I got off the junk. Man, sugar is SUCH a drug. I want it. At least I got a bit of a grip back, & well, practice makes perfect.
Tomorrow is the last flight I'll be taking with my flying partners that I triple buddy bid with. It's bitter sweet. I sure will miss those crazy bitches! I'm dreading saying goodbye on sat night when we land back at Newark. They won't let anyone give them a party, but I know some Flight Attendants have put up a banner for them in operations & 2 journals are being passed around for all to write comments & their fond farewells. I bought Pam a ton of dark chocolate (she's a chocoholic!) I bought Marilyn a ton of red wine (she's a ..well, nevermind.. she thinks we don't know.) Of course, I got funny cards. This is going to be really hard. Maybe I'll be better after they're gone & all this is over with. But I still sure feel sorry for myself that I can't join them, ESP since I'm a year plus senior to them both.
WhatEVER......
Since I last wrote, 2 of Doris' grandsons have graduated High School. I was in town for only one of their commencements, but I cried when I saw him marching into the auditorium in his blue robe & tossel cap. Of course I took a ton of pictures. I was SO proud & it is aways such a miracle!
I remember back when I graduated high school, wow. You never again feel that happy or brilliant EVER! It's such a wonderful time. So sad to loose that sweetness & naivete. And that feeling that the world is your oyster! Well, actually being naive wasn't so great. But I sure as hell am not that sweet anymore.

Congrats on getting the sweet eating under control!
You know what they say, a loss is a loss--way to go!
Deborah
Good for you! keep it up!
Hope the parting goes well and I'm sure you'll stay in touch with them, no?
I agree with Deb - a loss is a loss. :)
Oh Gosh, I WAS doing well with the food, STILL not eating sugar & chocolate, BUT have been doing carbs & big portions... telling myself at least Im not doing junk... but heck I think I gained like 5 lbs, dont really know, gotta get a better grip. Still I haven't eaten ice cream, etc...
It was hard to see my friends retire. Guess I'm shoving it down with food. What else is new? I should blog about it.
Thanks deborah, val & bent!
